Shotgun Wedding Soup -EwE Ellie Krieger

Not too long ago, I made an Italian Egg Drop Soup with Mini Meatballs which is similar to the soup, we made tonight in our Ellie Krieger group, Eating With Ellie (EwE). I knew, I would like tonight's soup, Shotgun Wedding Soup which is also of Italian origin because it had chopped turkey, spinach and egg drops, as did the previous soup. I liked the meatballs better than the browned turkey but it was still a very good soup.It contained, onion, (garlic), ground turkey, salt, black pepper, broth, parsley, eggs and spinach. It was easy to make and I had it ready quickly for my hungry hubby. He is happy that once again, I am cooking Ellie Krieger recipes and so am I.All the members who made this soup will be found at this site dedicated to Eating with Ellie. We welcome new members so come on and join in or if you just want to cook, on occasion, that is also fine with us.On February - 5 - Peggy has chosen Penne with Grape Tomatoes, Spinach, and Toasted Garlic found on page 224 in Weeknight Wonders. Sounds good to me.Showcase Your Talent ThursdayWhat's Cooking WednesdayFull Plate Thursday

Yum, we really liked this one, nice fresh ingredients without a lot of fat and calories and one just feels good eating it. I can see ways to spice up the flavor without adding additional fat and calories by using various herbs/spices for those who wanted more punch in the flavor but by and large, I liked it just like it was...and it was easy! Yours looks great.

Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human.

My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame this c…

It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group. It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace.Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124. I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular. My toddler granddaughter even liked it. Must have been the hot sauce.

I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis.Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons.
